System Suitability:“The process of validating whether your system is acceptable for providing
useful analytical data without any bias.”
Operational Qualification (OQ):“Establishing confidence that equipment and sub-systems are capable of
consistently operating with established limits and tolerances.”
Performance Qualification (PQ):“Demonstrate compliance with all requirements…including tests designed to
verify the satisfactory performance of the equipment.”
From the GLP world:
We know this is important, but how do we go about doing this for a proteomic analysis?
What Metrics are Important?

What Type of Sample?Single Peptide? Single Protein? Few Proteins? Lysate?

So, Just Start Somewhere…• In 2007, the DPCF started using 50 fmol injections of
yeast alcohol dehydrogenase (Waters MassPrep)• Primary check was mass accuracy and sequence
coverage, using database search results
• In May 2011 the DPCF started using Skyline to analyze and track SS data from our QToF instruments using a Full Scan MS2 method targeting 7 analytes

Summarization• Skyline provides a fast, efficient way to gain many
system suitability metrics from most MS raw data formats– Thermo, Waters, AB/Sciex, and Agilent
• Easy to visualize performance over time, with data at the individual peptide or aggregate level
• Can utilize Full Scan MS1, MS/MS, MRM, or DIA approaches for system suitability
• Ability to set/visualize “thresholds” for performance metrics once they are established would be a plus
